I have been working at home this week readying two orders of beadboard for delivery to the Texas Hill Country. I have been going to bed sore, tired . . . and satisfied.
It’s a good kind of tired. I’ve always preferred feeling physically tired vs. mentally tired.
Don’t you agree?
Anyway, hope your week has been productive and satisfying, too.
Have a great weekend!
Next time we buy a sofa, I really want a tufted one like this baby blue settee.
I love baskets like these. They’re so handy for carting things from place to place and certainly prettier and more sustainable than plastic bags.
I love this idea (and this home). If you have pretty linens, why not keep them forever on display using a screen door?
I love these portable shelves and how Hilary Robertson displays her treasures.
I stop in my tracks every single time I see a cabinet with little drawers or cubbies. I just can’t seem to have enough of them. This one is such a gorgeous grey blue. I don’t even mind the missing drawer.
Mark and I plan to explore some junkyards soon. We want to find a piece of an old car or truck to display in our Americana living room. If we found one like this, I think I’d want to bring the whole thing home.
Seriously? I’ve seen these before but never so many of them in one place! My heart would have skipped a beat to see these in person. What a fabulous addition to my collection one of them would be! Melissa, if you’re reading this, do you see the elephant?
I like to think this man is dreaming of Spring, like I certainly am. What do you think he’s thinking?
I’m dreaming of a tufted sofa like that too! I’ve got lots of sofas Pinned and most of them are tufted. Love, love, love it! I’m also drawn to smalls like the cubby with drawers. And the dogs!!! My heart skipped a beat just looking at the photo. The last photo brings tears to my eyes. He looks like he’s lost his best friend.
Thanks for sharing, Kim!
We have slipcovered sofas now, and I thought I’d love their easy care, but removing the tight covers is such a PAIN! Plus, but they’re a bit too sloppy looking for my taste. Maybe I just need to add some pillows!
The last photo looks a bit forlorn, that’s for sure, but I thought I’d take a positive spin on it. If he didn’t have the pretty tulips in his hand, I would not have been able to.
My first impression when I saw the picture of the man on the bench, is that he is alone and sad, and thinking
of a lost love. It is a heart breaking photo.
Bonnie, sounds like a feasible explanation to me! 🙂
I love that idea of using a screen door on the linen cupboard! Perfect way to keep air circulating so that the linens don’t smell musty. Plus it’s so pretty. 🙂
I didn’t even think about the air circulation issue. You’re so right!
I love the baby blue settee. However I think I want an overstuffed cushion to sit on with the tufting on the back and arms. And I don’t want to have to vacuum cat hair out of all the tufts. Those dog things are a little scary and I bet they are exPENsive.
Love all of your favs Kim! We got a lot in common girl 😉
Cindy
